Does anyone have information on the RISERS that FR used to sell and the Lippert Risers.

The Lippert Risers are about twelve inches long and there seems to be an issue with the 179’s as to frame stress. Due to the frame tubing been lighter. 

Are the Risers previously provided by FR longer? Or more robust? Does FR still sell them? If so any contact number? 

I have contacted FR with question on the FR Riser kit and they refer me to the warranty department, who then refer me to my original dealer, which has a very poor service record with me. Everything they “repaired” , I had to redo and besides that we moved from the area.

I am thinking of getting the Lippert ones and having extension welded on each end with a spacer bar on top to equal the bracket thickness. This would be to spread the stress load on the frame.

I will have access to a really good welder in about a month.

I would appreciate any input
